Post subject:  <<Business Thread>> of the Welcoming Team
Welcome to the Business Wing of the Welcoming Team, fellow members!
This thread was created for important announcements and issues that may arise concerning the Welcoming Team only. This thread is not for chatting about your day, nor is it a place to dish out your random musings, but for discussions strictly based on suggestions, questions and announcements of the Welcoming Team. This is the place to come for important information, not to hang out with your friends. Only relevant and necessary posts here, please.

However, know that your input, opinions, and suggestions are still highly valued and what make the Welcoming Team what it is. If there's anything you feel needs to be changed or added, post it here.
As non-members will probably soon realize, we're not all that experienced with being business-like, so erm...*cough* let's just try our best. ;)

The Official Honourary Buddies List
Gwenneth
Estë Undómë
Luthien of Lorien
Riniel Aranel
Mrs.Gamgee
Rose of Rivendell
Elven Archer
Elenriel of Mirkwood
Aerlinn

Note: Honourary buddies are former Newbie Buddies who have either become inactive or just don't have time for welcoming individual newbies anymore. We have made this specific list so that they may know that their hard work has been and always will be appreciated.

About Welcomators:
What is their job?: To answer questions, organize WT-related events and maintain the Welcoming Team as a whole.
Who came up with the idea?: The AU Moderators.
Why?: So that members can easily tell who recruits, organizes events, etc. The rank and silver stars are not a reward for outstanding welcoming, but a simple way to tell who to go to with questions about the Welcoming Team.
Well, what kind of powers do they have?: Unlike Moderators, Welcomators do NOT have nifty little buttons to push, nor do they have any special powers or priveleges. They are regular members.
Where can I apply to become one?: Sorry, but no one will be added as a new Welcomator right now. The best way to be of service to the Welcoming Team is to keep welcoming and participating in the Team. :)


Here is our treasure trove of WT banners kindly made by members of the Welcoming Team -

As our first order of business it has been suggested that we choose "titles", so to speak, for ourselves just as we've done for the GW club. Titles should look something like this - "The _____ Welcomer". You may PM these titles to me, and the member list will be updated with them included shortly.
Author:  Luthien of Lorien [ September 2nd, 2007, 9:59 pm ]

Ah, a fresh new thread. I like the idea of titles! I shall go think of one, while making my first welcoming posts since my return! Fwee! :D
Author:  Johnny's Fan [ September 3rd, 2007, 12:17 am ]
Post subject: 
Nice to see the new thread up and running. I shall start making the glitter names as soon as I can and I'll be thinking of my name as well. :D

Thanks for putting in all the hard work Larael. :hug:

Post subject: 
*Tugs on Lar's sleeve*

Um. Do you think it would be at all possible for me to have a title just in case I come back? Pleeeeeease? *Puppy eyes*

I think you can guess what I'd want to be...

Can you?

...

....

.....

The Fwee Welcomer!

:happy: Although I'm shameful at welcoming these days. I'm shameful at AUing full stop. :(

Hi, you think I could join? :) I always forget about the Introduction Board, all tucked away up here! And I figured with everything being remodeled now would be a good time to jump in! :D

I would love to join, please! :D *PMs Larael*

(Erm, a mistake on the list - Este Undome used to be Elenwe Undome, but you have her listed as two different people.)

Post subject: 
Woo! I'm there twice. xD Go me. :lol:

*Ahem*

Yes, of course. I was EU and now I'm EU. See, I thought about y'all when I changed my name. But yes, maybe you should take me down so I'm only there once...

Thanks for making the new thread and taking over all the work, Larael! :hug:

I really like the idea with the Welcoming Names. *thinks about a good name for her ;)*
Author:  Elenthari [ September 3rd, 2007, 2:27 pm ]
Post subject: 
A new thread!Yay!Thanks Lar!:hug:
To pick a 'title'-nice!:) *thinks...*
Author:  Larael [ September 3rd, 2007, 3:54 pm ]
Post subject: 
*blushes* Hehe.. there really wasn't much work involved really. Gwen had left it in such a way that all I had to do was basically copy and paste.

Oops.. *fixes Estë's name* :hug: Nice title dearie. I would've expected nothing better from you.

^I've updated the list Lamenter. :)

By the way, how many of you ever read the first post for announcements/updates? I've been wondering if I should do a separate post for whenever I update with important info. How's that sound?
Author:  mephiston, lord of death [ September 3rd, 2007, 4:05 pm ]
Post subject: 
Thats brill thanks.

Well, It will make it a bit disparate if announcements are done seperately on their own, and there will be no one record. I think that posting seperately and then updating the first post will work best, but hey, thats my two pence on it.
